Scientists at Oxford University have developed a breakthrough solar technology that could reduce the need for large solar farms.
A team of 40 researchers created ultra-thin solar cells, made from a material called perovskite, that can be applied to everyday objects like buildings, cars, and even mobile phones.
These flexible cells convert 27% of sunlight into electricity and could potentially reach 45% efficiency.
This innovation could lead to solar-powered cars, phones, and backpacks.
Dr. Junke Wang from Oxford University says this technology may lessen the reliance on silicon-based panels in the future.
